| Name of Organisation: | NHS Direct |
| Headline: | For health advice and reassurance, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year |
| What We Do: | When you call NHS Direct, we’ll ask you to provide some basic information, including details of any medication you may be taking. If you’re calling on behalf of someone else, you’ll need to provide this information on their behalf.
We’ll assess your problem and advise you on the best course of action. If you’re feeling unwell at the time of your call, you may be told how you can look after yourself at home, or we may recommend seeing a pharmacist (chemist). If it’s something more serious, you may be advised to see another health professional, such as your doctor. If the problem is very serious, we can help you to access the ambulance service. Whatever the problem, we’re here to give you the help and reassurance you need.
